Listen "Medications to Treat Obstructive Sleep Apnea"
Episode Synopsis
We have long known that CPAP therapy isn’t meant for everyone who has obstructive sleep apnea. There are plenty of non-PAP treatment options, including oral appliance therapy and hypoglossal nerve stimulation. Pharmacotherapy has been used as an adjunct therapy to treat persistent hypersomnolence despite well-treated OSA or to assist with PAP acclimatization. Now medications are being developed to treat OSA and its underlying obstruction. Here to help us understand more about these medications is Dr. Sanjay Patel.
